I expect very little at this point against Maryland but will hope for the best!

Those casinos have rubbed off on you!
-
The have to contend with Rez and Ivisic today, our guards are better, our wings are way better...that said, if we chuck 40 3's we lose just like we did in the 05 C-Ship game.
-
we are gonna get smoked, UConn style
-
It's sort of Illinois duty to win this game and make the semis an old school OG Big Ten grouping
-
Already a bad pass by KJ. Come on dude.
-
just as I was about to post we have an opportunity to get MD into foul trouble, Ivisic gets his second
-
Alright even before his second foul I'd seen enough of Ivisic not even trying to defend or box out. Get Morez in there and go to work.
-
Rice about to go off for 40
-

-
They can't miss. And what miles said above.
-
LOL humrichous already to the bench guy couldn't grab a loose ball rebound or defend
-
This looks like a carbon copy of the first matchup
-
gross
-
We're so bad right now lol
-
Well there is a good game on with Marquette beating St Johns right now.
Man we look so ordinary today or even worse than that...chucking 3's again. Relying on a big that has 2 fouls already.
We will be lucky if this game isn't 95-65 at the end, and it will be if we don't start rebounding and playing with an edge.
-
Brad sounding like he doesn't have any answers.
-
EVERY I mean EVERY offensive set should be designed to go into the heart of the interior either by dribbling or passing. They ARE literally only 5 deep. Get em in foul trouble. NO 3's!!!
-

He doesn't to this onslaught
-
oops

3rd on Tomi. Lovely.

Need to actually get them to roll in though.

Text the coach it's s great point
-
Maryland 7-11 from three
Illini 0-1 on dunks
-
So much for a 4 or 5 seed lol. Not sure why I keep my hopes up with this team.
This game is a foreshadow of next weekend when we get bounced by a 2 seed in the second round.
-
i dig your optimism, to think we win the 10/7 game
-
Maryland is getting whatever they want. Much like Iowa last night.
-
What the hell is Riley doing
-
They're quicker and stronger, everywhere.
-
They're quicker and stronger, everywhere.
They're definitely better
-
We’re not fairing well against ACC teams this year.
-
that was lovely
-
STRAIGHT GARBAGE PLAY BY our guards who can't even get our offense in motion.
This game is a perfect example of why we have double digit losses and ARE NOT a final four team.
I hope KJ goes high in the draft, his T/O's are getting as old as Hawkins whining over every play and throwing his hands up.
-
They're definitely better
Well the 5 of them are...too bad BU can't figure out a way to get us to see the 6/7/8 guys, oh wait Geronimo is looking like a 2nd rd draft pick against us.
-
When’s the last time we had a team this bipolar?
-
What the hell is Riley doing
Riley is NOT strong with the ball, he hasn't been all year. Maryland will and has made him pay for that already...he also doesn't like contact, hell at least Humrichous acted like he wanted to break the backboard.
-

2022-23 when Mayer was chugging down Monsters and punching teammates.
-
Text the coach it's s great point
I keep getting his kid's voicemail.
-
2022-23 when Mayer was chugging down Monsters and punching teammates.
I considered them, but I just don’t think that team was that good. This team could be much better.
-
Reese's eyes light up when he sees us. He's only got 5 and they still score 57.
-
We started the game with 2 turnovers on our first two possessions. That should have been a huge red flag right there.
-

Some team will draft him on potential but I'm not seeing anything that makes me think he's a high lottery pick right now.

We started last night missing 3 bunnies when we led 2-0. Yea not the same, nevermind...LOL
-
On Bracket Matrix Maryland is equal to Wisconsin and Purdue and... no. This is a 3 seed level team.
-
This game has gone pretty much as I expected, except worse
-
Right now the 10's that we may face as a 7 seed (best case scenario),
West Virginia
Drake
Oklahoma
Utah State
I think we would most likely want WVU out of this group, storyline is there, best chance to win 1st rd game.
IF that happens, we are in the South and would probably play Izzo in the 2nd Rd. Izzo would then play Texas A/M.
Pick to lose in 1st Rd. VCU over UCLA.
-
Another career high against our ILLINI, soon to be a tournament record for 3's in a game vs us also.
This is F**king painful at this point of the season. Hell Maryland might win the National C-Ship this year with Flagg hurt and all.
-
Whoever was supposed to scout this game against the Terps missed this memo.
Last 5 games for Maryland Rice has had the following:
11 in win over NW
19 in win over Fichigan
5 vs PSU in a win
20 outta Maryalnds 58 in a loss to MSU
22 in a win over USC.
Pretty sure he could score and at will...yet we allow him to be comfortable and he is within setting the new 3 pt made record in a tourney game.
C'mon scouts
-
On the bright side, there was no 30 point run by Maryland
-
I mean at least were getting our shit pushed in by the 2 seed right
-
Good one Vegas. One point underdog. Hope no one bet Illinois.
-
Well when we suck we suck. 17 t/o, 12 assists.
-
We won the 2nd half!
-
On the bright side, there was no 30 point run by Maryland
^^^^ this might be unfortunately a legit bright side to this game.
-
We won the 2nd half!
They almost beat our overall score with their 1st half score.
-
Watched this with some buddies at a sports bar. I brought an extra t shirt with me because I feared this outcome. Changed at halftime.
-
It wasn't addressed in the post game presser but before the xxxx game on Fri Underwood told Andy Katz that we're good enough to be a Final Four team. Before people start filling out brackets is that still the case ? ;D

You take that back !!!!

We could be, but we won't be, there is a chance, it's fluid, we are elite shooting 3's (in practice), so I'm saying there's a chance, just not this year. I consistently believe this due to inconsistencies game to game. We are younger, but we need to get older, once we are older, we will once again look to get younger. Aye Aye Aye...LOL
